New Girl in the City
Circumstances had steered the young, introverted, fearful girl away from her hometown, all alone to a new place. The new city overwhelmingly welcomed her, but being the cautious person that she was, she just treaded her way to embrace the city one day at a time. She unfolded herself one step at a time to become everything she had aspired to be. She was living that one day, every single day!
As you read this, she is transforming from the girl next door to an inspirational woman by exploring, traveling, and unraveling, undaunted by judgments and opinions.
She is You!

Twilight Blues
“The twilight is in a hurry to go to sleep in the arms of the night,” thought Payal as she saw the sky change colors. Payal was walking back home from her bus stop after a long journey and a tiring day at work. All she could think about were the never-ending chores that awaited her. She felt agitated and troubled as she turned the key in the lock of her door. To her surprise, Ajay stood near the dining table, smiling, as he gestured towards a candle-lit dinner spread. She blushed and laughed out loud as she hugged him.

Meeting at Sunset
He always met her at sunset. He would wait beside the river and she never failed him. Every day they would meet at the same spot. After the sunset, he would go back, have his dinner and sleep soundly and dream of her. This had been going on for many years after she had drowned in the river long ago. They laughed at him in the village and called him a mad fellow. But what did he care? He would continue to meet her till she took him with her into the river, and then they would be together forever.
